Reading Check: PEE Paragraph!
Notice the last sentence of Wiesenthal's narrative account:
"You, who have just read this sad and tragic episode in my life, can mentally change places with me and ask yourself the crucial question, "What would I have done?"
Respond! Write a well-developed paragraph that includes 2 chunks of thought that either defends or challenges Wiesenthal's response to the soldier's plea for forgiveness. (*Note- Your final synthesis essay will also be on this topic, so this will serve as a great warm-up for that!)
Re-Read and Gather Ideas
Last time, we read pg.39-43 aloud. Each person should have had paper divided into 3 columns- ethos, pathos, and logos. As we read, students should have jotted down words, phrases, or statements that appeal to each column. (i.e. "I often gave them something to eat" (40). Ethos)
Columns:
Ethos- What gives the soldier credibility? Why should Simon not look at him as a monster?
Pathos- What is meant to draw an emotional response from the listener (in this case, the Jew the soldier is confiding in)?
Logos- How does the soldier logically explain his actions? Can you break down the reasoning?
*Note- Many statements or ideas may overlap. Some things may serve as more than one type of appeal.
Students are divided into 3 groups: Ethos, Pathos, and Logos. Each group will work on a large piece of paper to gather ideas from the text that work for that particular appeal. Groups then briefly present their findings to the class.
Journaling Practice:
Watch me do an journal entry on the part we read aloud today! I am concentrating on the Rhetorical Triangle, making this a solid LOT 3 entry! Now YOU try an entry that focuses on these rhetorical appeals. Can you do a LOT 3 entry that picks out ethos, pathos, or logos? Of your 15-20 entries (due in 1 week), make sure that at least 3 address ethos, pathos, or logos! Link to Journal Explanation
